I guess what I'm really asking of the piston drivers out there:

(a) Are you happy with naturally aspirated piston engines that struggle after around 5,000ft pressure altitude on a standard day?

(b) Would you prefer a turbo normalised engine which would make sea level power up to above 15,000ft pressure altitude?

Thanks for the replies,
CRAN
